Restriction enzymes cut up the DNA of the phage, inactivating it.]]> 2019-04-09 16:19:13 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_holliday/040919/wish/350014277 sarah_holliday https://padlet.com/sarah_holliday/040919/wish/350014577 Why some plasmids contain a gene for resistance to an antibiotic.
All plasmids conatain the gene, but scientists can grow them with an antibiotic, causing the ones that don't have the gene to die.]]> 2019-04-09 16:19:46 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_holliday/040919/wish/350014577 sarah_holliday https://padlet.com/sarah_holliday/040919/wish/350014650 How genetic engineering can improve human health.
Genetic engineering can help people become immune to things like cancer and other major viruses. It could improve human health greatly by helping humans be more immune to things that cause illness.]]> 2019-04-09 16:19:52 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_holliday/040919/wish/350014650 sarah_holliday https://padlet.com/sarah_holliday/040919/wish/350014792 One major difference between selective breeding and genetic engineering.
Selective breeding is genetic modification of when two organisms with a desired trait breed and produce offspring with that trait while genetic engineering is when foreign genetic material is placed into an organism and altered.]]> 2019-04-09 16:20:00 UTC https://padlet.com/sarah_holliday/040919/wish/350014792
